VPE Family Newsletter
September 2023
VPE Parents/Guardians,
We have had a wonderful start to the school year. Thank you for all you have done to help this be a smooth start. Please help us in the afternoon by pulling up as close as possible to the car in front of you while waiting in the pick up line. This will help us keep traffic off of 849. 1st grade parents please also help us by utilizing both lanes in the first grade car line.
Please read this newsletter for the following information:

We have enjoyed getting to both reconnect with our students and connect with our new ones as well! We have a wonderful group of students at VPE. They are quickly learning our rules and routines!
Please reach out if you have any questions!
